Hi, I own an Alfa AWUS036H network adapter using the rtl8187 driver on a Debian box. I plan to use it with hostap, which apparently requires master mode to be enabled in the driver. The page http://linuxwireless.org/en/users/Drivers/rtl8187 states: not working yet: AP/Master mode What means *yet*? Is it planned to add master mode support in the near future? Do you have other suggestions what I could do to get the driver to work together with hostap? Disclaimer: I am not an expert in those things. I set up the access point some years ago, then the network adapter started to function unreliably. I then replaced it with a different one (the abovementioned 036H) and didn't manage to get my setup running again. Best regards Marco |
